The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is pleased to note that the first presidential, parliamentary and local government elections in Kenya after the adoption of 2010 Constitution were held on 4 March 2013 in a widely peaceful atmosphere.

We congratulate the people of Kenya who maturely exercised their democratic rights and reflected their free will in the polls. We wish President-elect Uhuru Kenyatta all the success in his new duty and we confirm that we stand by the friendly and brotherly nation of Kenya in this process.
